About this property

GREAT MOUNTAIN CABIN WITH A PERSONAL TOUCH —Quiet,Quiet, Quiet.

Just 25 miles from the northern entrance into Yosemite National Park, (an hour's drive to Yosemite valley) you will find yourself in our fully furnished home that is the perfect get away. It has an unobstructed view of a lovely 100 acre meadow and is in Stanislaus National forest. If you are looking for solitude, sunshiny days and starlet nights in the pines then you will love this home. At 3200 feet we’re just above the snow mark but below the blizzard line. We’re just ½ mile from the nearest grocery store or gas station and 10 minutes (8 miles) from Highway 120.
Our vacation property can accommodate 6+ comfortably. It has three bedrooms; master bedroom has a king size adjustable bed and a private full-bath. The second bedroom has two queen beds and share the other full-bath with the third bedroom hosting a queen bed.
There is easy access to the house through the garage or the front door. The house is all on one floor. Our setting is very private. There is access to internet if you want to stay connected and a tv in every bedroom and a 65” TV in the spacious living room.
The large kitchen is fully equipped for all your cooking needs and has granite throughout. It includes a large Island for cooking or eating and a table that expands to seat eight. There is a gas BBQ grill in the back yard.
The hot tub is fabulous for relaxing anytime but especially under the stars at night. It has therapy jets for those tired muscles after a long day of sightseeing and hiking. City of Groveland is near by for those times you don’t want to cook but rather enjoy eating at one of there many restaurants.

Amazing!!!

Our family of five spent an amazing 10 days here. The cabin was wonderful, clean, cozy, plenty of space, a quiet area, and at a great location. We loved watching the animals in the field out front. Easy access to Yosemite NP which we loved. We also loved relaxing out back on the deck and in the hot tub after spending most days hiking. Property manager was great to work with. We absolutely recommend this cabin!

Great home with lots of activities

We stayed for a girls' trip and highly recommend this house for others to stay in. It was an hour's drive to Yosemite and we really enjoyed eating dinner at Tangled Heart Cafe which is just outside of Groveland. The house has comfortable beds, large kitchen, and lots of room to relax. It was nice to be able to cook and do laundry. We really enjoyed all the outdoor activities which included a jacuzzi hot tub, tree house, swings, horseshoe pit, ladder toss game, mini golf putting green, and zip line. It was a very quiet and peaceful area. Doug is a very responsive and helpful host.

It was a nice experience. The house was clean, comfortable and location was nice and peaceful. The hot tub was very helpful after a day in Yosemite. The general store was helpful by being down the street but they do close at 6:55 sharp. Overall we had a lot of fun and relaxing time.

Great place to stay

After driving at night through what looked like deserted gold mine villages where gun-slingers might emerge at any moment, your house was so welcome! We immediately felt at home with some lovely friendly touches and messages from Doug and Lori. In the light of the morning we could see the great location, very rural and peaceful with well-stocked shops very close. Yosemite itself is spectacular, although it was very busy on an August weekend - we're told weekdays are a better time to visit. We also enjoyed visiting the nearby towns of Coultersville and Groveland and the rainbow pool is great for a swim or leaping off rocks for the more adventurous. It was great to come home to a comfortable house and lie out in the hot tub watching stars and the occasional shooting star. I would definitely recommend this house.

Yosemite Home Base

Stayed in Doug & Lori's beautiful home as a base camp for our Yosemite trip. It was a great location about 30-40 minute drive each day into the park. Home was wonderful, comfortable and had everything we needed for a relaxing visit. Really enjoyed the "mountain mini golf" in the yard one evening and fantastic garage/patio set up with gas grill for dinner outside one evening. Got the chance to meet Doug the owner who could not have been more helpful about things to see in the park. Had one small issue which was taken care of almost immediately on a Sunday evening of a holiday weekend (thanks Al!). If you want the comfort of home after a great day hiking, this is the place for you. Oh yea,the hot tub was a great elixir for sore muscles too!

Best deal near Yosemite

Our family (2 people & 19 yr. old) stayed 6 nights here and thoroughly enjoyed it! Yosemite Park entrance is not far away, around 35-40 minutes and another 35-40 to the Valley floor. Gas station and grocery store are nearby, and the towns of Groveland and Coulterville. The property was very well maintained, clean. There were many amenities available for all ages. We enjoyed the hot tub,tree swing, mini golf, treadmill, etc.. along with the basic amenities of washer,dryer, kitchen, and Nice Big Walk in Shower! (FYI-there is no hairdryer, so may want to bring your own) It was so nice to relax here after a day in the park. We highly recommend staying here and will definitely try to come back with more family! Thanks Doug and Lori!

Yosemite visit

We had a fantastic visit to Yosemite National Park and this house was great. We were five friends staying together. The house easily fit all of us with a well equipped kitchen, excellent laundry, wifi, fire pit and hot tub. The hot tub and fire pit were a fantastic end to a day spent hiking in the park. Doug was a fantastic host who was great at communicating all necessary details. The local people were very friendly and helpful for directions and suggestions. The store up the road is within walking distance and is really well stocked with nice food. The drive to the park take approx 40min but is very scenic with great stops along the way. We went to Rainbow pool which is a waterfall and waterhole about 20mins drive from the house. We also completed the upper yosemite falls track which is not for the faint hearted. Difficult track but the views at the top were worth it.

Amazing !

Pictures dont do justice. This house is amazing. It is a newer house that is extremely clean. The best part of this house is the view from the front. I remember telling my girlfriend I would wash dishes everyday if I had this view from my kitchen window. We stayed at this house because we wanted to visit Yosemite. Its about a 30 minute drive to the gates of Yosemite. But it seems quicker than that because the views are amazing on the drive up there. Even the drive up to the house had amazing views, I dont know how many times we stopped to take pictures. I would defiantely recommend this property. I plan on taking my parents sometime in summer. Doug is a great guy, he is easy to get a hold of and is very responsive with his emails. Thanks again Doug. Oh, and when we pulled up to the property early Saturday morning, we saw about 9 deer in the yard. It was a nice welcoming ;)

Fantastic Place to Stay

Everything about this place is perfect for anyone who wants to visit Yosemite. We have stayed twice, the first just myself and my wife (around 12 years ago) and secondly with our 3 kids (all under 10). We all think it's a great place and ideal for a relaxing after a long day walking or just for having a day off from the parks.If anyone is thinking of booking, we would highly recommend that you do!

Excellent property!

The home was just as advertised. Very comfortable and had everything you would need. The kitchen was well stocked and the hot tub in the evening was fantastic. We spent most of our time hiking in Yosemite which was about 45 minutes away but a beautiful drive. The area is quiet but we found stores and restaurants nearby. I would highly recommend this rental. This is someones home, not a rental property. It is well cared for and maintained. Thank you for sharing.

A really well presented property, inside and out. Beautiful rural location. We used it as a base for exploring Yosemite and the owner gave us some good advice about when to visit Yosemite (to avoid peak crowds) that proved very useful. A really enjoyable stay.

Clean spacious home with great amenities

We had a nice time staying here in this very clean and large house. It was able to accommodate sleeping for all of our guests. There are a lot of places to enjoy the property like the back and front seating areas and hot tub. Note: the garage is converted into an extra room and is not air-conditioned. So if it is very hot outside, you can't sleep in this space.

Perfect winter vacation

We were looking for a quick trip for our kids to play with the snow. We couldn't ask for a better experience. House was very clean and cozy and Doug was extremely helpful. He was very quick to answer all our questions and very helpful to solve our problems (which weren't about the house). Our kids had a great time safely playing with the snow around the house all day and we really enjoyed the comfortable family room with the great fireplace. We would definitely recommend this place to our friends.

About the host

Hosted by Doug Dalton

Host profile image
Lori and I met while we were young and only 17 while attending college up in Idaho. In 2012 Doug and I retired and we purchased this home as our vacation dream home. We love it so much that we enjoy staying here whenever we can. The mountains are beautiful and it is very peaceful here. Lori and I have 5 children and 18 grand children with one on the way. We enjoy camping, traveling, but mostly just doing work around our homes.
and visiting with friends.

Why they chose this property

We chose this property because we enjoy mountain living without the hustle and bustle of resort areas. Little traffic and yet close to Yosemite and wonderful hiking adventures.

What makes this property unique

Very quiet, small town along the original John Muir trail, enjoy the stars-Yosemite and the nearby historic town of Coulterville.
Also near by is the best swimming waterfall anywhere in the Park. Look up Rainbow Pool and realize its only 10 miles from us.
